Completely agree. Its easier for kids to learn through stories and examples that accompany the story.

One fundamental aspect of functional programing is that it specifies the use of functions as arguments.

I like the chapter suggestion. Maybe each chapter builds upon a function that the kids can relate to. The subsequent chapters can use the previous functions as "arguments" or objects so that they understand this concept.
